Green plants provide beta-carotene, which provides vitamin A to a goat's diet. Boer goats store vitamin A in the liver, using the reserved vitamin when lacking greens in the diet. Vitamin D is absorbed through the skin of the goat while being outdoors. Sun-cured hay is a good source of providing vitamin D in the diet.
In secondary copper deficiency, the goats are consuming plenty of copper, but antagonists in the diet, such as high molybdenum, sulfur, or iron, interfere with the goatâs ability to absorb and use the copper. For example, alfalfa can have levels of molybdenum that are so high as to induce copper deficiency in goats.
